Blessed Coffee

Blessed Coffee, based on the philosophy "From the Farmer to Your Cup," has been chartered as a "Benefit Corporations", that operates as a socially responsible business and engages in trade geared towards development in coffee-growing regions in Ethiopia, as well as the communities in the U.S. where coffee is sold. In April 2010, Maryland became the first state in the nation to implement legislation creating, Benefit Corporations, a new class of corporation that explicitly are formed to create a material, positive impact on society and the environment and to meet the highest standards of corporate accountability and transparency. As of May 2017, 31 states, including New York and California, have enacted B-Corp. legislation. As the second chartered Benefit Corporations in the U.S, Blessed Coffee’s aims resonate at multiple levels: the desire for the very best, the appeal of cultural exchange, and the aspiration to produce common good for farmers in Ethiopia and communities in the U.S.
